Hello All, Thank you for your wonderful replies. Tasks that I am interested in: a) Support for Python DSLs b) Python wrappers for all existing algorithms c) GPU support d) Perftest : automated performance tests of algorithms
I am also willing to work on the tasks that SystemML community think are important. Regards, Krishna On Fri, Jan 6, 2017 at 10:14 PM, Mike Dusenberry <dusenberr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Krishna!
